Excuse me for the correction, but I didn't raise it. You did. "It" means attacking the GNU Project's general positions, policies, goals, etc. I made the point that there is a wide variety of packages and development organizations participating in GNU, many of which are otherwise independent of GNU, in the context of the question "isn't GNU inconsistent when Emacs requires assignments but many other GNU projects don't?" Yes, you did -- as an argument against a GNU Project position. Earlier I explained why the argument was invalid. Now the point is that such arguments do not belong on this list. We have a list for that sort of discussion: gnu-misc-discuss. Please take it there. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way! That's nonfree (freedom-denying) software.
